Xining,

Take a look at this thread, does this answer your question? Otherwise we can have a team member look into this for you.

Cheers,

Number of Input Files 1

Input are 3 files but only one  file is found. Pls make sure the other two bin files' folder directory are correct.

Hi Meng

Thanks for pointing this error. After I correct this error, the board still cannot run.

In the CCS debug mode, I am using the image from mmwave_sdk_<ver>/packages/ti/utils/ccsdebug /xwr16xx_ccsdebug.bin. Will this image help my code running? When I burn my own image onto the board, there will be no ccsdebug.bin image. Will this be a problem?

The following is the output of building image.

Thanks
Xining

If you want to use CCS to debug xwr16xx, you need to burn /xwr16xx_ccsdebug.bin to spi flash. In your case, you want to run the code from spi flash directly, so you need not to burn /xwr16xx_ccsdebug.bin.

I have tried the image_create.bat and found a small error. Pls correct is as below.

org: MulticoreImageGen.exe LE 0 0x01000005 ..\metaImage.bin 0x35510000 ..\mss_rprc.bin 0xB5510000 ..\xwr16xx_radarss_rprc.bin 0xD5510000 ..\dss.bin

Change:MulticoreImageGen.exe LE 0 0x01000005 ..\metaImage.bin 0x35510000 ..\mss_rprc.bin 0xB5510000 ..\xwr16xx_radarss_rprc.bin 0xD5510000 ..\dss_rprc.bin

My xwr16xx_mmw_demo_mss.xer4f and xwr16xx_mmw_demo_dss.xe674 can work well (the bin file burned to flash works ok with mmw demo web GUI) with two methods in the link you shared.

I attached my xwr16xx_mmw_demo_mss.xer4f/xwr16xx_mmw_demo_dss.xe674. https://e2e.ti.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/1023/xwr16xx.7zPls kindly try. And pls make sure your xer4f and xe674 work ok in CCS debug before trying to burn it to SPI flash.
